Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N28TX, is a 1992-built Cessna 650 Citation VII with serial number 650-7007. The airframe is registered to MIDWEST FLYING SERVICE DOS LLC (Sheldon, IA, US) and operated from that owner’s home base in Sheldon, Iowa, under United States registration. The airframe’s documented market valuation is $2,000,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and position within the late-model Citation VII fleet. No other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are provided in the dataset.
The cabin of this individual Citation VII is configured in an 8–9-place executive layout with a forward refreshment center/galley and a belted aft lavatory, offering a stand-up cabin environment suitable for corporate or owner-operator missions. Avionics fit for this airframe is reported consistent with a Collins/Honeywell integrated suite, typically encompassing Collins communications and navigation radios with a Honeywell SPZ-8000 integrated flight control system, EGPWS and TCAS as reported across Citation VII fleets. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its 1,833 nm range and 452 kt cruise speed, would include mid-continent point-to-point business trips or short transcontinental flights within North America operated from its Sheldon, IA base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe relate to the twin Honeywell TFE731 engines and age-related inspections typical for early-1990s business jets; no unique modifications or STC entries are provided.
The Cessna 650 Citation VII occupies a performance niche as a long-range light-medium business jet offering high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft ceiling, competing with contemporaries from Gulfstream, Bombardier/Canadair and Dassault in used-aircraft markets of its vintage. Demand from owner-operators and small charter operators typically emphasizes cabin comfort, single-pilot capability where applicable, and reliable engine/avionics support; the integrated Collins/Honeywell suite reported for this airframe supports continued operational relevance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 1992 serial 650-7007 center on engine time, avionics currency, and airframe condition; the stated market value of $2,000,000 is indicative of a late-model Citation VII in operational condition but reflects depreciation relative to newer light jets.
